SEAT Arona DIY: how to repair and repaint the damaged side of the car

Model: Seat Arona MK 1 - Years 2017-2026
Part: Dent

On the SEAT Arona, locate the damage between the rear wing and the door. Remove any chips and expose the metal in the scuffed areas, then clean and degrease thoroughly. As shown in the video, apply body filler to the deformation, allow it to harden, and shape the surface with progressive sanding until the profile of the side is uniform again. Remove the dust and check in the light for any dips. Proceed to restore the colour of the SEAT Arona by applying the correct paint base code and finishing with a clear coat to achieve the same gloss as the adjacent panel. Once dried, check the continuity of the colour along the side crease and alignment with the door: the final result, as shown in the video, should be uniform and glossy.
